I would say, a dual boot system I the way to go but it would be a bit easier.
No, I've tried that already, it doesn't work as there is cross contamination in the registry......sorry.

Dual boot is the way to go, my laptop at work is set up to have T4,T5 & MG GDS on one partition and the LandRover stuff on the other one.

In another forum topic (https://www.mg-rover.org/threads/t4-testbook.5362/ ) I found an "installation guide" one part of it says:
Quote:
network card configured for
TCP/IP protocol alone with a specific IP address of 192.168.1.2, but
no subnet address and with Workgroup T4 and computer name T4.
assuming it is the same for LR,
1. I am able to adjust the TCP/IP protocol to 192.168.1.2 BUT I need to fill in a subnet address otherwise it will not accept. Is this a step I have to do or will the software adjust this for me?

2."Workgroup T4 ? Is that something I have to adjust?

3. Compter name T4, Done!

It will automatically assign a subnet mask for you

Update:
Today I build a dual boot laptop and did the installation of Land Rover RDS 6.00 and WDS. Software seems to work, but I have to test it on a car to be sure. If anyone has got 7.00 or higher I am interested, from 7.0 you can put all the data cd's on the hard drive which make it easier to work with.

Thank you guys so far!

No communication with my Defender TD5. It doesn't recognize the connected cable. If I switch over to my working computer it works so it must be software related. I guess some network settings but which?

And the computer is now automatically starting the T4 software, normally I don't mind but for now I don't know how to access the network settings in windows. Any tips?

Ok, I am able to go back to the network settings, and was able to adjust from automatic select to the IP-adres to 192-168-1-2 with sub 255-255-255-0 . Apparently the RDS software did not adjust these. Fingers crossed and will test it coming week.

I bought cable DTC 0055A, thinking it was the cable I needed, but I found out DTC 0008A is the cable I need. I keep an eye on ebay, but meanwhile I know where to find the connectors but is there somebody who has got a wiring diagram of this cable? Same for the yellow DTC 00060A cable.

DTC0008B is the three pin connector to diagnose MEMS1.6, and the yellow DTC00060A is for 5AS security, and translates if my memory serves me right to DTC0019A.

What model of T4 do you have?
